Anna Politkovskaja: She was a journalist who was shot and killed in 2006, for exposing Russian war crimes during the Second Chechen war.

Great video, Simon, but a couple of inaccuracies, the most significant of which was that Putin was NEVER the head of the KGB. Putin worked as a KGB foreign intelligence officer for 16 years, rising to the rank of lieutenant colonel before resigning in 1991 to begin a political career in Saint Petersburg. He moved to Moscow in 1996 to join the administration of president Boris Yeltsin.

Given Putin has gone on to use the same basic playbook in Georgia and Ukraine, I think it's safe to say Putin considers the tactics and methods used in Chechnya to be perfectly justifiable. In hindsight, looking at Chechnya and Georgia, Putin's true nature is rather obvious and the so-called Peace-Dividend was always going to be something of a fallacy.
